Lyondell, a chemical manufacturer, was spun out of ARCO as a commodity olefins business in 1985 and CEO Dan Smith took the helm in 1988. The company grew through stock swaps with Occidental Chemicals and Millennium Chemicals in 1997 which formed Equistar Chemicals of which each entity were partners. Lyondell purchased the outstanding shares from each of its partners to gain total control of Equistar which became a wholly owned subsidiary of Lyondell. In 1998, Lyondell announced an agreement to buy the remaining chemical business from ARCO.

Sprint and Nextel : In December 2004, Sprint announced its acquisition of Nextel, creating the third largest wireless carrier in the United States. Sprint had its origin in traditional land-line telephony and took advantage of the initial round of telecommunications deregulation to expand into long-distance service and then into wireless in 1993. It focused on the consumer market, launching the first PCS market in the US. Nextel was founded in 1987, focusing on dispatch services for the construction and taxi industries and used radio communications rather than cellular technology.

TXU, KKR and TPG: The April 2014 bankruptcy of Energy Futures Holding Company (known as TXU) sent shockwaves through the investment community . In 2007, private equity groups KKR and TPG, along with investment banker Goldman Sachs, engineered a $48 billion leveraged buyout of TXU which was the holding company for Texas based regulated utilities. When the deal was consummated in 2007, TXU had a generation base of coal and nuclear and, under the deregulation of the electric utilities in Texas, TXU could charge utility rates at the higher natural gas prices.
